Back to Australia after five months in the US! I had such a great time in the States, but boy, it’s good to be home again. Syrup is already on the bookshelves here (and wow, it’s everywhere I look), although most of my publicity stuff won’t happen until September. (I argued hard for a Godzilla-style teaser campaign, starting to build about nine months before publication date, but you won’t believe how obstinate these publishers can be.)
